Not only is he a comic book artist and a damn good one, but at the tender age of twenty-three, he has already published several independent comics, written and illustrated his own book for Marvel's Gen X series, and recently illustrated the original Clerks comic.
Enter Mahfood, at the time he was working with Bob Schreck, a respected comic industry veteran who had worked for publishing powerhouses like Marvel before he and his partner broke off to form their own label called ONI Press in 1997.
So, it was only natural for him to write a comic book about the movie that started it all.

 The Atlantic Online January/February 2005 An Exquisite Slogger Benjamin Schwarz
Pritchett, however, did his class of origin the highest honor: he neither patronized nor made comic the salesmen, shopkeepers, small businessmen, and clerks who people his stories.
As Treglown, the former editor of the TLS and the biographer of Henry Green and Roald Dahl, correctly avers, Pritchett was "the greatest writer-critic since Virginia Woolf," but this hardly assures him a fashionable reputation.
Sadly, he probably has, because although Victor Sawdon Pritchett (born the year before Victoria's death, he was named for the reigning monarch) wrote novels, travel books, biographies, and memoirs, by far his greatest accomplishments were as a short-story writer and a critic.

"Daredevil" writer/director Mark Stephen Johnson said he may ask filmmaker Kevin Smith ("Clerks") to adapt his own brief run as a writer for the "Daredevil" comic into a screenplay, or Johnson may work from comic legend Frank Miller's gritty Elektra "Resurrection" story.
As big of a fan of Elektra's comic book exploits as Garner has become, there are still a few things she would rather not explore in an "Elektra" solo movie — namely, Elektra's stint as a prostitute.
[In the current movie], this is the time where she is falling in love, so there is kind of this romantic overtone, and there is kind of a sweetness and tenderness that you wouldn't normally associate with Elektra.
